Viking 52ST (2014 - 2022) Rivals

Accommodation

If your priority is guest accommodation then the Viking Yachts 52ST offers well-appointed accommodation for up to 6 guests with its 3 cabin layout option. Some of its rivals, including the Viking Yachts 48C and Viking Yachts 54ST, share the same 6 guest sleeping capacity, making them excellent choices for those seeking to enjoy their yachting experience with family and friends. The 52ST benefits from a master cabin with an en-suite bathroom and hull side windows is a standout. The Viking Yachts 48ST and Viking Yachts 48SC, although designed for slightly smaller groups of 5 guests in 2 cabins, still offer an exceptional level of comfort for short trips and overnight getaways.

Performance

When it comes to cruising speed, the Viking Yachts 52ST holds its own at a respectable 35 knots and a maximum speed of 39 knots. However, the Viking Yachts 48C surpasses this slightly with an impressive cruising speed of 36 knots signalling a lean towards more dynamic performance capabilities. On the other hand, for those not in a hurry the Viking Yachts 48ST, with the slowest cruising speed of 30 knots, emphasizes stability and comfort over outright speed and enjoying the journey over the destination.

Unique Characteristics

Each yacht also brings unique features to the forefront. The Viking Yachts 48C, Viking Yachts 48ST and Viking Yachts 48SC all feature shallow drafts for yachts of this size, allowing them to navigate waters inaccessible to deeper vessels. The performance of the Viking Yachts 48C is especially impressive, with a top speed of 40 knots and cruising speed of 36 knots.

Summary

Despite stiff competition, the Viking 52ST stands out with notable features and design elements. These yachts cater to a wide range of preferences and needs, making the choice a matter of personal taste and specific requirements in the world of luxury yachting.
